So my Jason costume is about 98% done now at this point. So i decided to take it to New York Comic-con and give it a test run. I was there with the 501st legion, doing our Star Wars thing, but i busted out my Jason on Sunday for about an hour. It was pretty well received. With a couple of more tweaks i think this will be a masterpiece of horror, as wickedbeard put it lol. I have to thank Jeff "wickedbeard" for helping point me in the right directions for building this suit. Big props to Jeff and all he does! Anyway, Enjoy!

As a HUGE Jason fan that os impressive Lou! Great job putting it together, part 7 is the toughest to do right, and have look right, you nailed it man! I just finished painting up a part 3 under mask and hockey mask for a friend, Jason's big again this year, nice to see!

wow, how did you get the blood on the blade looking so real and congealed and stuff? i am looking at doing a costume from Assassins Creed 3 which has blood stains on the blade. would love to know your suggestions

The blood on the blade is acrylic paints. Honestly i did it about 4yrs ago for my first Jason costume which was god awful lol. the Machette was nice though, so i kept that.

I think it was a mix of quinacridone red, primary red and black, put on in layers. I did the reds first and then added a little black to the mix for the darker areas, and kept adding more as i got to the areas i wanted darker. Im pretty sure thats what i did, but not 100% on it since it was so long ago lol It actually looks better in pics than in person, but it still does look pretty good up close.

I still need to paint more of the undersuit so you dontr see any black coming through, but mkore the brown/skin color. I also need to shorten the chain and weather the boots! lol
